Golden, Colorado paintings by Topher Straus
Golden, Colorado
Topher Straus lives and works in Golden, Colorado, in the foothills west of Denver. From here he paints the sun rising over the mesa above town and the red rock walls of Red Rocks, just down the road in Morrison.
“This piece celebrates the sunrise power of the Colorado Plateau—there’s nothing quite like watching that golden light spill over the mesa.”

About Golden
Golden sits where Clear Creek leaves the mountains, between the flat-topped mesas of North and South Table Mountain. Founded in 1859, it briefly served as the capital of Colorado Territory. Just south, in Morrison, Red Rocks Amphitheatre opened in 1941 between two 300-foot sandstone monoliths, Ship Rock and Creation Rock.
